Looking to expand my mind

Almost anything non-fiction.

Bit of a mix, I read everything:

James Clavell - Shogun (Asian saga)
Niall Ferguson - Civilization: The West and the rest
Mark Manson - Models: Attract Women Through Honesty
Cal Newport - Deep Work
Nassim Nicholas Taleb - Antifragile
David Kushner - Masters of Doom
Richard Feynman - Surely, you're joking Mr. Feynman
Nick Bostrom - Superintelligence
Steven Pinker - The Blank Slate
Darrell Huff - How to lie with statistics
Serge Lang - Basic Mathematics
Walter Isaacson - The Innovators
Susan Cain - Quiet: The power of introverts in a world that can't stop talking
Nicholas Carr - The Shallows: What the internet is doing to our brains
Dan Brown - Angels & Demons + The Da Vinci Code
Isaac Asimov - Foundation + Empire

Should be a good start with lots of interesting stuff.

Steven Pressfield - Gates of Fire

THIS

t. Pseudointellectual

Read The Myth of Sisyphus by Albert Camus and reflect on it's relevance not just towards fitness, but all things we choose to give meaning.

Yeah this, I kind of learned it the hard way. I read through the entirety of Kierkegaard's Either/Or and sort of understood but for the most part wondered what the fuck I just read
The greeks have really simple ways of tackling abstraction and a lot of practical philosophy which makes them a good starting point

yeah not sure about those first two but the camp of the saints should be mandatory

I see you're a man of culture as well.

t. nigger or self-hating white person

The first two are a logical progression toward the third

Led me on a path from existentialism to Buddhism

Not self hating, I just refuse to have a sense of pride or superiority over something as arbitrary as skin color. I think its pathetic desu

>penguin press edition
you mean the politically correct translation? lmao

How do you bros get these books?

I've tried some as PDFs on my laptop but it's such a poor experience compared to a hard copy, and I don't like staring at a screen for an extra few hours a week.
Kindle; I don't have one. I've tried a friend's and they're actually pretty nice but it's still a screen.
Downloaded a few youtube to mp3 for shorter audiobooks which is nice for driving/cardio.
Paperbacks are occasionally reasonably priced and I can justify buying ones I know I'll value, but some can be too expensive, such as the seemingly niche ones posted here.
But then I wonder if it's actually a good thing to spend money on. I don't mistreat books, yet hardcover books just last better especially if it's a cheap printing of a paperback like I worry some amazon postings are. So if it's a book you're keeping for many readings it seems better to buy in hardcover, but then I end up not buying it because hardcover is usually ridiculously expensive.
I wish the public library closest to me actually had a literature/philosophy section.

>arbitrary
Just lmao

who's that?
any nudes?

>buy kindle
>look up '50 great book collection' edition 1, 2 and 3
>costs 50 cents each
>75k pages of practically free great literature
>if you buy the books separately you pay around 5 dollar each so fuck that

only downside is that you don't get to see that sweet 100 % mark in the top right corner after you've finished a book.

Roman Law
Basic accounting books
Rich Dad Poor Dad

t. mixraced mutt with no identity

Mans higher conciousness
mucusless diet healing system
healing light of the tao

>start with the greeks

If you're going to gain anything from reading in terms of lifting then start with classic greek literature. Branch out and you can gain discipline and motivation by having a better understanding of life. Or read Starting Strength idc.

That's the thing though, I actually do have an identity so I dont have to cling to the color of my skin as my only crowning achievement in life

Implying I view my skin colour as an achievement - nonsense. Simply put I will always put my foot down for my kind, regardless of what weak white guilt morons like you think

handbooks by Polyanin (especially the nonlinear PDEs)
yellow book by Shafarevich
first 6 books in the Lifshitz, Landau series

fucking this, the best book about the spartans i ever read

>2018
>reading
Why don't you sit down and watch the new Marvel movie, goy?

>my kind
So humans?

Great list
I'd add Charles Bukowski's novels to the list as well (Ham on Rye, Women, Post Office)

Mein Kampf by Adolf Hitler

Read The Stranger by Camus too.
I might recommend Demian by Herman Hesse as well.

12 rules of life by Jordan Peterson. He has a shit rep from all the "feminist rekt epic style" spergs, but he makes some good points.

My uncle with Alzheimer makes some good points. Doesn't make it worth listening to his babbles for a day.

Muh nigga, literally what I'm reading now.
